The Benefits of Organic

Why organic? Well, organic fabric cuts out many harmful chemicals that are used in making fabrics. The biggest organ of the body is the skin. These chemicals negatively affect our skin, the soil, water and air. The soil’s nutrients are depleted by the harsh chemicals, whereas organic soil is working with nature positively helping to the improve the life of that plant. The run from farms that use chemicals travels to streams, rivers and oceans, changing the natural wildlife forever. Chemically treated soil also has shown to use energy to promote growth, organic uses less energy. These chemicals can also affect future generations. Sounds like we have no other choice than to listen to our Earth, wildlife and our bodies. Organic is the way to go.

German fashion industry seeks to ban anorexic catwalk models

German fashion industry representatives signed a voluntary code of conduct in Berlin Friday aimed at banning anorexic models from the catwalk, an initiative backed by the federal government. In terms of the agreement, women models must be older than 16 and have a dress size of at least 36, equivalent to a size 10 in Britain and a size 6 in the United States.

The prime mover behind the initiative, Health Minister Ulla Schmidt, acknowledged that the move would not solve the problem of compulsive slimming among young women.

But an example could be set, in cooperation with other European countries, for the large fashion shows with their extremely thin models, she said.

In December last year, Schmidt, in cooperation with Family Minister Ursula von der Leyen, Education Minister Annette Schavan and Austrian Family Minister Andrea Kdolsky, kicked off a campaign entitled "Life has weight - together against slimming madness."

A recent comprehensive survey by Germany's Robert Koch Institute found that around 22 per cent of youngsters aged 11 to 17 suffer from some form of eating disorder.

In boys, the rate then falls off, while among girls it rises to 30 per cent at the age of 17. Schmidt called the numbers "shocking."

Von der Leyen said 90 per cent of those affected were girls or young women. "Anorexia is overwhelmingly female and it is very youthful," she said.
